I was disappointed with this gig because we were expecting the show to start about 8.45 seeing as the doors opened ar 8pm. We were still there at 10pm waiting for the acts to come on, at which point we decided we'd waited long and left. I don't think it;s fair to expect an audience to wait for at least 2 hours to see any show, especially when it's a standing-only event. It's almost as though there it was a plan to make sure everyone bought as many drinks as the venue could sell in order to extract as much money out of people as possible. We won't be going back to the Sheridan Suites again in a hurry.

was disappointed that barrington levy didnt show up as he was the main artist i wanted to see, didnt start till 10.40pm and there was too many breaks between atrists, i have been to much better concerts than this one, the artist did 20-30 min sets, with too much of a gap in between. there was no seating

Barrington Levy and Ken Boothe were a no show. Janet Kay only came on for 3 tracks. Night didnt start until Freddie McGregor came on stage around midnight and they had advertised to come early!!!!! Drinks expensive - security staff arrogant and aggressive. Overall, very disappointing night although Freddie and John were fab!

we got there just after 8 pm thinking it was going to start at 9pm how wrong we were it was approx 11pm before the first artist came on which was Janet Kay she was enjoyable but to be honest we had started to get fed up at this stage !! the toilets and bar were a big issue long cheques for both needless to say we only had 2 drinks all night !We finally gave up the ghost for Sir John Holt as it was now 1.15am and there was no signs of the artist who was supposed to come on before him which was Marcia Griffiths after Ken Boothe and Barrington Levy cancelling !!!Most disappointed with the night and it would be interesting to know if John Holt did put an appearance in as the curfew time was 2.00 am and as i said we went home fed up at 1.15am and we had to stand up all night

What a disappointment, they played CD's for two hour's eventually the artist's came on two of them didn't turn up, John Holt who we went to see came on last and sang three song's then left the stage, what a let down stood for six hour's for that, never again, spent £40 each,what a waste of money.

Our first in Manchester and we really enjoyed the concert. It was good to have an outside smoking area. Cabs were a bit difficult to get so would recommend booking one.
